Liza changed suddenly. The woman I once loved meeting had turned into someone I started avoiding. She used to be full of life and energy, but after she left her job, she became someone who constantly complained. A mutual friend suggested I talk to her, and though I was reluctant, I eventually did. To my surprise, Liza admitted she knew she had changed and wanted to return to her old self. So, I shared with her the secret of the mirror.
What is the Secret of the Mirror?
The mirror you see every day has a special power. It reflects not just your image but can also help transform your life. Here’s what it’s not: it’s not meditation, it doesn’t need special equipment (just a mirror), it doesn’t take much time, you can do it anytime, and it doesn’t require a specific place or the same mirror.
Why Do You Need This in Your Routine?
Life has its ups and downs, just like the ocean. You’re not always happy or sad; there are many in-between moments. You don’t need motivation when you’re happy, but you do when you’re sad. Taking care of your emotional self when you’re happy helps you handle sadness better. When you’re emotionally strong, you can say, “This too shall pass,” and bounce back from sadness more easily.
What are the Five Things You Need to Say to the Mirror?
1. I am Healthy, I Attract Good Health
Good health is the foundation of life. Always say this in the present tense, like “I am healthy,” not “I will become healthy.” This helps you feel energized and say goodbye to ailments. You can also add affirmations like, “I get time to exercise,” “I choose good food,” and “The food I eat nourishes my body.”
2. I am Beautiful / I am Handsome, I Love the Way I Look
This isn’t just about physical beauty but also inner beauty. Many of us are unhappy with our looks, but every feature has a purpose. Be grateful for your looks and body. There’s a story about a deer who loved his beautiful horns but hated his thin legs. When hunters attacked, his legs saved him, but his horns got him caught. The moral is to appreciate all parts of yourself.
3. I am a Positive Being. I Attract Positive People into My Life
In a world full of drama and negativity, aim to surround yourself with positive people. Remove toxic people from your life, not by cutting them off completely, but by not letting their behavior affect you. When you tell the mirror you’re positive, you attract positivity and rise above negativity.
4. I am Busy, My Hands Always have Work to Do
Being busy with meaningful work is important. Social media often takes up our time, but it’s not productive. Use your time, education, and talent for good work. Ask the mirror for good work to do, and you’ll develop your mind and become the person you want to be.
5. I am Fulfilling the Purpose of My Life
Everyone has a purpose in life, which can change over time. Achieving your purpose keeps you motivated and feeling good about yourself. Your purpose should be noble and for the greater good, not just about earning money. It should bring joy to others. Tell the mirror you have a purpose and are fulfilling it.
How to Use the Mirror Effectively?
– Stand in front of the mirror.
– Write down what you want to say.
– Say it out loud with confidence and positivity.
– Avoid using the word “No.”
– Imagine attracting good things while speaking.
– Choose a time when your energy is high.
– Speak as many times as you want, whether in the morning, during the day, or before bed.
– Smile and believe in what you’re saying. Be patient for the transformation to happen.
Ultimately, you are your own angel. You don’t need a therapist or a shoulder to cry on; you just need yourself. The mirror reflects your true self. Create a positive environment where you can thrive and spread your positivity.
